Can someone suggest a comforter that wicks away pet hair pretty well?

Both of our dogs sleep in our bed with us and I’m tired of how much hair there is, especially now that shedding season has begun.

And please don’t recommend not letting them sleep with us because that’s not an option.

I just throw a cotton blanket or sheet on top for them to sleep on and wash it every few days.

I definitely feel this though. I have 4 pitbulls and they are little balls of joy and I wouldn't dare deprive them of nap time with me. I love having all my babies in my bed with me. But their short stiff hairs are a nightmare and get caught in everything and stab me at night.

I'm currently having the same dilemma and saving up for a high quality silk or bamboo sheet set. Cotton is really bad about about holding onto hair and bonus, it's Also really bad about holding onto allergens. If you're someone who struggles with seasonal or environmental allergies and ur dogs bring those to ur bed switching to silk pr bamboo will help with that as well.

You just gotta be careful cuz alot of places will lie as say it's silk pr bamboo and sell you a polyester blend, which honestly is maybe a little better than cotton but will be sweaty. Both of these options are also pricey though when you find a good quality so I'm still trying to find out what people recommend.

I definitely wouldn't trust any Amazon sellers tho they always lie about material. I bought a silk sheet set and the tags literally said polyester blend, dog hairs don't stick to it nearly as much as cotton sheets tho so that's a plus. Even if you don't have time to do a full wash and dry, having a flat sheet over the fitted as others have said and throwing it in the dryer every few days to collect some of the hair definitely helps.

I would put an old sheet on top of my bed, made for a larger mattress. Every couple days I would stick it in the washing machine.

Grooming them is your best option. I have cats and no matter what comforter I buy hair sticks everywhere. I have to vacuum my bed constantly. I recently started grooming my cats and it has decreased the shedding a lot. Daily brushing them will also help a lot.

My husband suggest getting a tarp from Home Depot. They come in blue and brown.

All joking aside there is no such animal that you are requesting. Maybe put a second blanket or sheet where the pups sleep and you can wash daily. Get two then you can swap them every other day.

Bounce makes a dryer sheet that helps with pet hair. Doesn't get rid of it, but helps. Aside from that, I put an old sheet over their spot on the bed.

I put an old bed spread over the top of my bed. It's big enough to cover the entire bed. I always have a clean one standing by so I can change it as needed.
